Daily Note

  1. ATTENTION: Today is a weird day. I have to meet with upcoming 8th graders during our class. YOU SHOULD SPEND OUR CLASS TIME REVISING IN THE LIBRARY!!! Send me your questions on our class discussion board. 
     
  2. Your questions on a jamboard
     
  3. Review operating systems
  4. Review Computer resources
  5. Review Resource limitations
  6. Review Operating Systems management techniques
  7. Review  Dedicated operating system for a device
  8. Review Hiding complexity

 

A little less comfortable

Process

You should be revising our content for 20 minutes each day. As you learning about resource management  you should be asking yourself how you can apply your understanding (how do I go from theoretical to practical). I would love to hear you ask, "How can we use this information practically?". 

Product

As you are learning you should be taking notes, and developing a cookbook or spellbook. Most system administrators have a book of hints and tips they keep with them. You should have a digital text file or written notebook with helpful reminders to understand the deeper parts of your system. 

Content

At the end of the day, you should be able to apply your understanding of operating systems to issues to solve problems. You must understand how to view and manage complexity from an operating system.

As you are learning you should be taking notes, and developing a cookbook or spellbook. Most system administrators have a book of hints and tips they keep with them. You should have a digital text file or written notebook with helpful reminders to understand the deeper parts of your system. You should explore different operating systems; looking for tools and similiar views between windows, linux and mac OS. 

Content

At the end of the day, you should be able to apply your understanding of operating systems to issues to solve problems. You must understand how to view and manage complexity from an operating system, and you should be able to interface with parts of an operting system through a python program. 

 

Our Big idea

The big idea for today is Resource management.

The essential questions for this topic are:

How does your computer manage competition for limited resources?

It takes time to explore and really understand a big idea. If you want to
learn more about resource management (which is connected to today's daily note), please click here .

We are learning this because as a designers must understand scientific and technical innovation. Designers use systems, models, methods, and processes to solve problems.
